Metabolic Rate Limits the Effect of Sperm Competition on Mammalian Spermatogenesis

Sperm competition leads to increased sperm production in many taxa. This response may result from increases in testes size, changes in testicular architecture or changes in the kinetics of spermatogenesis, but the impact of each one of these processes on sperm production has not been studied in an i...
